What Skiers Say About Avoriaz

Avoriaz attracts a wide range of abilities, from beginners to experts, with many families and groups visiting. Reviewers consistently mention the ski-in/ski-out convenience, car-free village with horse-drawn transport, and access to the large Portes du Soleil area including Switzerland. Snow conditions are generally described as reliable due to altitude, though lower runs can become slushy or icy in afternoons. The après-ski scene, particularly La Folie Douce, is frequently praised. Accommodation is often noted as expensive or basic, and lift queues can be significant during UK and French school holidays.

The resort offers the perfect lift system connecting efficiently the whole resort and links to Morzine. Will high altitude it offers great views and holds good snow conditions in warmer weather. Unique and welcome sight, the horse drawn sledges, improving safety and eco friendly and traditional feel. After visiting many ski resorts over the years I was pleasantly surprised from a less historic resorts like Courchevel. I would definitely visit again.

If you want clear runs get up at the crack of dawn and make your way over towards the Swiss border, stunning runs and the masses won’t go over that far so you’ll get some really nice skiing done before the snow gets eaten up.

Second ski holiday in Avoriaz. Cant beat the resort for being car free and family friendly. Ski lessons for kids and I through ESF, great instructors and central meeting point.

Amazing resort. Can ski pretty much everywhere within village. Snow there even when Morzine didn't have much. Had a big dump of snow despite time in season. Excellent tree runs on and off piste. Family friendly, but can party if you want to as well! Loads to explore.

The most perfect of resorts. Ski in and out. Great for groups of mixed ability as there are lots of runs that meet at the same point so half can do a blue, some a red or black. The resort has lots of places to eat and it’s reasonably priced. Also if self catering three supermarkets and you can buy ready made fresh french food that’s restaurant quality. I’ve skied in lots of places this is the best by far.

Great to go on the Porte du Soleil left pass. Had my 23, 17 and 13 year olds with us and they could safely go alone for a few runs as competent skiers.
Great mountain restaurants

With a high altitude of 1800 meters it's a perfect resort for end of season. Been here last few years around end of March and snow has been good, with this year exceptional. Plenty of choice for apartments and hotels and ski in- ski out to every apartment is fab too. Will definitely come back to avoriaz.

Great skiing with lots of options and pistes. Not too busy end of March which was lovely. Expensive and not great food in most places and the après ski music is awful and only played bad techno all week long. Drinks were also expensive. Seems family friendly. Accommodation was good and lots of options but charge you extra in most places for towels and sheets which is ridiculous. The place could do with an adult spa/swim area as the one they had was mainly for children and families.
So overall the skiing was great, the rest was okay.

I go skiing here every year and I wouldn’t change where I ski. The area is so big you can ski for miles. Great food places where you can eat pizzas and burgers or spag Bol. The la folie douce is a great bar/party place where u can dance on the tables and have a great time. I always come to Avoriaz because it’s such a great place to ski or snowboard and they have a great snowpark
